Shef Rogers,

Nowhere in the piece to which you refer did I assert that Beirut was embracing democracy. I wrote about hopeful signs in Iraq, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan. The article’s teaser — which I did not write — worded things somewhat confusingly so that one who didn’t read the actual piece might think as you do. But, to repeat: absolutely nowhere in the article did I say anything about any hopeful signs of democracy in present-day Lebanon. In future, you should read beyond the teasers before formulating your critiques.

Can someone please tell me what is going on at jihadwatch.org, faithfreedom.org and investigativeproject.org sites. None of those sites is showing. Have they been hacked?

How ironic! Greenwald wants us to “pin down” Obama–and I’m all for that–but has refused to admit his own disastrously wrong predictions about the Middle East, most recently his Pajamas Media article, “The Arab Spring Is Happening Now.” Two weeks after Greenwald predicted that Beirut was embracing democracy, Hizbullah occupied the city. Why do we still listen to this man?

Dear Mr. Greenwald,

Thank you for a very fine and engaging essay. All four questions are brilliantly presented. I truly wish that answers would be forthcoming from Mr. Obama, but an irresistible skepticism always dashes my hopes in these matters.

Peace.

Do you seriously think you’d get a straight up answer from a trained lawyer? Despite the fact he may have forgotten his constitutional law, Obama hasn’t forgotten his oratory and debate training from law school.

Now We know who Oboma really ( IS ) YOU CAN PIN DOWN A MARXIST QUOTE KARL MARX …. 1919 .
This is the most important deep study and well researched material on Oboma’s past life I have seen to date .It tells who’s ,their ACTIVIST Marxist Politics in Hawaii , where’s , times and places and his works in his books page by page and in his own thoughts and words .
His though to be Typical White GRAND MOTHER is not at all ..believe me !!!!!!!
This blows the cover off Oboma’s past life and whys he says what he says and deeply believes what he believes in his Activism politics .
Well brain washed by Black MARXIST in Hawaii long before he moved to Chicago life of Activism with the poor .

Rev Wright is only a small piece of the former Oboma larger puzzle .
I now understand completely . He has the same kind of friends he had in Hawaii … Exactly …… All anti American .
Oboma is far more Freighting than Al Quada, Iran or Hesballah .
I can’t but help believe the media new this Truth on him as well .
Since it was no secret finally told by Andrew Walden knowing if it was a lie he would be sued right down to his last penny .
I would vote fore Anybody other than Oboma now .

Responding to these four questions would let us know exactly where he stands on the war.

I don’t think Obama knows where he stands on the war.

(Pronouncements to appeal to the base in order to snag the nomination notwithstanding.)

At this point, from what I’ve seen of Senator Obama’s shifting (for expediency or to widen his “appeal”) and wishy-washyness, I really wouldn’t want the future of American foreign policy to rest exclusively (or even largely) in his hands.

Common, we Hillary fans have gotten over Obama.

What do you expect? Let him destroy himself, but never us.

Conservatives and Republicans should not repulse McCain just because he also takes care of us, Moderate Democrats. Many of us are pro-life, honor the patriotism of our soldiers, believe in sanctity of marriage. But like McCain, common sense also tells us that we need to support stable life for gays/lesbians to make them decent human beings and we need to protect environment.

On the issue of war, many democrats have been brainwashed. JFK and Truman, Democrats themselves, went to war… whether right or wrong… they were Presidents of us all. Even McCain served as Democrat President. MY OPINION IS: WHEN THE PRESIDENT GOES TO WAR… SO IS THE REST OF US – no justification needed. WE are justified if we win the WAR.

I now support McCain to continue the war against Terrorism and Islmofascism. But as a democrat, I believe also that we need to couple this with reaching out the civilian Muslim people that we are not waging war agaisnt their religion. We need to tell them Jihadism is not really consistent the teaching of Mohammed and Allah.

I believe now that only McCain can truly establish unity among our people. Four years of McCain may be what we really need to gather our acts together as one people, one nation.

The hell with this two-party system…. it only divides the American people and has become Anti-American.

I am now crossing party line…

I will vote for McCain! That’s final. Period.

Almost any request for an extemporaneous answer causes Oblabla to chew shoe leather. He’s a wind-up oration robot.

If he has any stable principles other than elevating himself to the head of a ruling Marxist cabal, no one has yet seen any sign of them.
